time. we are going to be seeing more winter-like weather than we have seen in days past. here is a look right now, and don't be panicked. none is reaching the ground. we have a lot of clouds here and some moisture getting picked up. the air is so dry that it is vab operating before -- it is evaporating before it hits the ground. the rain is not here yet. in case you are wondering how many rainy days we have had so far, san francisco .38 so far in january. we average about 4.5 inches. if you look at the days we have had four days of rain. we could use the moisture and it is coming as early as tomorrow. cloudy tonight. milder morning. rain arrives tomorrow and we are looking at showers for your thursday. here is a look at the satellite and radar. we do have a stream of subtropical moisture. now the computer models are starting to bump up the amount of rain we will receive over the next couple days. so let's start out first with this system that is going to produce it. it will develop tomorrow as this system approaches.
